The King's Trail passes Adolfström on its way from Hemavan in the south to Abisko in the north. The trail has a high status among mountain hikers, and is also part of the Green and White Belt. Either you should walk parts of the nationally known trail, or you should walk the entire trail in one or more years.
Towards the south
To the south, the trail descends from the bare mountain towards the suspension bridges over the Badasälven and Laisälven rivers, along the river to Bäverholm. From Bäverholm you can take the boat past the Yraft delta nature reserve with its long sandy beaches, flower-filled hay meadows and old hay barns or walk along the shore of Lake Yraft before reaching Adolfström.
North
From Adolfström you walk through old pine forest up to the birch forest before reaching Pieljekaise National Park, where there is a nice overnight cabin. From the cabin it is only a couple of hours of hiking before you reach Silvervägen and Jäckvik.
Rippling fresh mountain water you can drink straight from the source. Listen to the beautiful melody during a break on your hike.
In late summer and autumn, the mountains are bursting with all sorts of colors, the air is clear and nature's pantry is wide open. Even though it's hard to take your eyes off the beautiful views, do it anyway. Look down to the ground where you are standing - the mountain is a real goldmine.
You can also deviate from the marked trails and hike into the high mountains. There you will find interesting biotopes with different plants and also fantastic views of snow-covered mountain areas well into the summer.
We can help you plan your own route far into the mountain area, where you won't see any traces of other people. It's you and the animals and birds that are there and, of course, some mosquitoes and gnats. But the insects are part of summer and are not as annoying as many people think. Besides, the birds must have something to eat.
Shoe chafing is hard to avoid on a real mountain hike. But with shoe hay in your shoes, the pain is alleviated and the moisture in your shoes is absorbed by the hay, which is then easy to take out and dry at the next rest stop.
The cold and darkness of mid-winter puts us on the back burner, but in the summer we are full of energy, gathering light and warmth. around the clock!
